I’m Wishing

As you know, Annie has been princess crazed for some time now, and her latest favorite is “Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs.” Each day without fail she asks to wear her Snow White dress, and then once she’s in it she says, “Now watch Snow White? Pwease?”

Being the sucker that I am for the sound of Annie’s little “Pwease,” I always pop in the DVD for yet another viewing. Annie’s favorite song is the first one, “I’m Wishing,” and at some point she and Heather began singing it together in the call and answer style of the movie. The two of them are pretty darn cute, if I say so myself.

So cute! I’d love to tell you about a project I’m working on right now, that you guys and Annie might enjoy given her love of princesses and fairy tales.

Aw, I had to laugh a little at your comment because my mom looooves telling the story about how she was singing one time when I was about three years old and I looked at her and said, “Please, mommy, don’t sing!” Poor mom, haha.

For now, my daughter likes my singing (better than her dad’s anyway, she always shoots him funny looks when he tries to sing) and goes “angain” asking for encores. I suspect it’s because she doesn’t know any better, at the moment.

You should totally do what we just saw. A woman and her assistant do birthdays….they do the disney characters (girls/princesses/Jessie) and they come in, set up decorations. Read a book, play a game, eat with kids, do art project, teach kids to wave/curtsy/bow and then dance and sing a song for them. Then they clean up while parents give cake. They were out of there in ~2.5 hours. You could so rock this with your mad dance skills and singing voice!!!

what a lovely memory. and that wee annie has close to perfect pitch – that is impressive!! my wee one will love to watch annie on ‘da computer tv’ singing with HER mama, just like we often sing together!

Mommy says:

Annie’s singing is so cute and you can just tell she’s going to have serious singing talent as she gets older. And Heather sounds waaaaaaaaay better than the real Snow White in the Disney movie, wow!!! That was amazing. Thanks for sharing!

Alyssa says:

I just have to agree with everyone else on here, Heather your voice is amazing!! I just assumed that the song voice was from the dvd or a cd that was playing in the backround. Until the last few moments that I got to see you and SURPRISE your mouth moved! Wow lady, maybe you should sign up for some community broadway theater! Annie is just as adorable as ever and her little singing voice is just so sweet.

Bonna says:

I admit Snow White is MY LEAST FAVORITE PRINCESS because I CANNOT tolerate her voice. throughout the entire movie. I do, however, love your rendition of the song. Too cute! Annie’s enthusiasm is priceless.

Liz says:

Oh my goodness not only is Annie the cutest thing, but your voice is just beautiful. It reminds me of a Disney Princess singing for her Prince to come, but then you already have your prince, don’t you.

Annie is cute and precious, and all that serious-goodness-jazz because that is one cute kid… however…

HOLY CRAP HEATHER!!! Do you have an agent? You need an agent. Put that beautiful God given talent to work!! Good God woman! Go record that voice doing something because…seriously… HOLY CRAP!

PS Most of us mommies don’t sound like the princess singing in the video. We like to think we do, but we don’t. You my dear sound like the princess singing in the video. Ohh… Ohh… could you please make a video singing that song from The Little Mermaid? I’ll be your agent – just make the video so we can post it on you tube.

SO CUTE.
Heather sings beautifully! A two year-old matching pitch so well? Awesome!
And I love how Annie is mimicking Snow White’s exceedingly overdone vibrato by adding the little shake to her voice. That’s one smart kid!!

DefendUSA says:

That was incredible!!! I love Annie’s little voice, but OMgoodnessgracious!!!!!!!! Heather!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Your voice is amazing!!! And my mom & I both agree that you sound better than the original singer of the song!!!
